Virginia’s Wells Fargo Building saw Bandaloop performers literally make their mark on its windows as they danced for passersby.

Performers danced along the side of the building, supported by a mixture of cords and choreography that stunned and surprised an audience of onlookers.



Bandaloop dancers commit to the breathtaking style of dance using a mixture of climbing technology and acrobatics, navigating windows and walls to the sound of music.

Founder Amelia Rudolph says that, though the shows are beautiful, these aerial events remain more than visual stunts.

“They say what we do is death-defying,” Rudolph says on the organization’s website. “I’d say it’s life-affirming.”

Trump announces a $22.5B makeover of Dulles airport that will eliminate the ‘people movers’

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced a $22.5 billion renovation of Washington Dulles International Airport that will end the use of the widely disliked “people movers,” the mobile lounges that have been used for decades to shuttle travelers to and from the main terminal. In place of the people movers, the airport will add a new U-shaped passenger train, a central walking tunnel, more moving walkways and new concourses. An above-ground parking garage closer to the main terminal with space for 32,000 vehicles is also in the offing, according to Trump and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. The airport makeover would add to a long list of renovation projects the Republican president is pursuing to leave a lasting mark on the Washington region after his term ends in January 2029. Among other undertakings, he is building a new White House ballroom and wants to build a towering triumphal arch near the Lincoln Memorial. But of all the construction projects Trump is pursuing, the renovations at Dulles could prove to be his most popular and benefit the greatest number of people. The airport, the area’s primary international airport, served roughly 29 million passengers over the past year, according to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority.
